Paul’s new 'One On One' Tour launched in the US in 2016 and to date he’s played 45 shows across 13 different countries to over 1.4 million people, winning rave reviews from both concert-goers and the media. The final run of shows in 2016 concluded with Paul’s headlining performance at the now legendary Desert Trip festival in the US. Paul played his first shows of 2017 in April in Japan as well as announcing new North and South American dates for this summer. 

This show will be Paul’s second ever visit to Colombia. His first being five years ago when his record breaking 'On The Run' world tour visited Estadio El Campin in Bogota 

The new 'One On One' show includes a dazzling re-designed production as well as previously never performed classics from the most beloved catalogue in popular music.  The 'One On One' Tour spans Paul’s entire career – from his earliest work with The Quarrymen through to his most recent collaboration with Kanye West and Rihanna – as well as global treasures from The Beatles, Wings and his solo catalogue – there is no shortage of surprises. 

The Paul McCartney live experience is everything any music lover could ever want from a rock show—and so much more: Nearly three hours worth of the greatest moments from the last 50 years of music, dozens of songs that have formed the soundtracks of our lives. Paul and his band have played an unparalleled range of venues and locations: outside the Coliseum in Rome, Moscow's Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The White House, a free show in Mexico for over 400,000 people, the last ever show at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park where The Beatles played their final concert in 1966, and even one performance broadcast live into Space! Featuring Paul's band of the last 10+ years – Paul "Wix" Wickens (keyboards), Brian Ray (bass/guitar), Rusty Anderson (guitar) and Abe Laboriel Jr (drums) – the show is never anything short of life-changing.

The 'One On One' Tour features a brand new production, as always, utilising state of the art audio and video technology and to ensure an unforgettable experience from every seat in the house. Employing massive screens, lasers, fireworks and, of course, a staggering selection of the best songs ever written or performed. Every Paul McCartney show promises a once in a lifetime evening that transcends and elevates the potential of live music.

Paul McCartney is coming to Australia for his first tour in 24 years and you can ask a question

Paul McCartney last toured Australia in 1993.

PAUL McCartney’s first Australian tour in 24 years has been confirmed.

His Australian promoter Frontier are currently sourcing questions from local Macca fans on its Facebook page.

The musical legend will select from those questions when he officially announces the tour tomorrow night at 7.30pm.

In a modern twist McCartney will announce all the tour dates and ticketing details during a Facebook live Q and A session — again on Frontier’s Facebook page.

The interview will be hosted live from London by longtime McCartney fan, Aussie comedian Tim Minchin, who is flying in especially for the event.

McCartney’s Australian tour dates will take place in December and will include a stop across the Tasman Sea to New Zealand.

No venues have been confirmed although a leak from Melbourne’s AAMI Park suggest McCartney will join the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Taylor Swift and the Foo Fighters to play the outdoor venue which can hold around 35,000 fans.

McCartney’s tour is expected to stretch further than the West Coast, and Adelaide fans are already hoping the rock icon doesn’t join the list of acts bypassing South Australia.

McCartney has been courted by local promoters for the last decade, with Michael Gudinski winning the bidding war.

Sir Paul has only toured Australia three times before — once with The Beatles in 1964, then with Wings in 1975 and his only solo trip in 1993.

Fans have flooded social media with excitement after teasers for the tour surfaced on Sunday, although The Herald Sun first revealed the likelihood on June 12.

McCartney famously cancelled a tour in 2002, saying the tour was too close to grieving for the Bali bombing victims and he planned to reschedule.

Patient McCartney fans will be rewarded with a near three-hour show, nearly half of which is Beatles songs.

McCartney’s One on One tour has already played shows in Japan this year and will tour North and South America between July and October before heading down under.
